Paul was not a male chauvinist. He was a Hebrew, a Jew, who lived in the first century.
It was cultural that women wore veils long before Paul was born.
He was no more a male chauvinist for using "Father" instead of "Creator" than Jesus was or Peter
God Himself identified Himself as Father!
2Sa 7:14 I will be to him a father, and he shall be to me a son. When he commits iniquity, I will discipline him with the rod of men, with the stripes of the sons of men,
All Jews considered God their "Father". ALL Jews did. Male or Female. They did not have personal issues over it like you do or today's psychologically weak generation.
You aren't helping anyone by bowing to a small shrill minority that hate God
